Tough question--I don't think you should censor or even lie to them about the content.

What helped me as a kid was the physical act of observing my parents find honest enjoyment and value in things. They aren't into hip hop, but I applied the principles they taught me into my own search for enjoyment/passion/whatever.

As a kid, I'd want the respect to know that I'm going to make my own choices. Your kid might HATE Kendrick--that'd fucking suck, but your kid is gonna find his own path.

But, a strong example of how to discern for yourself of what's good/bad, right/wrong, etc. is gonna go a lot farther versus a parent force feeding decisions on what/what not to listen to.

Is this mentality something you think we could begin to implement into human life even with our limited lifespan? Or should we even?

I guess I'm curious to know if it is better to think more longterm or short term. Currently, it seems like we are all moving faster and faster, continuously consuming more (this isn't just about fish obviously). While the speed at which we are moving has advantages--like increased technology for the good of humanity--how beneficial is it?

Patience, planning, and fairness to others seems like a better policy to me, but so much of what I see around me is opposite of that.
